Jim Warman Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 So... tonight I am cleaning the turkey, getting ready to stuff him into the oven tomorrow AM... This year, we have a lot to be thankful for... a grandson on the way, a promotion at work for my boy... I've survived to see one more Thanksgiving. The oil patch is picking up (my son has to work this weekend... night shift no less as they have a rig running 24 hours right now. For all the Canucks on the boards - have a happy and safe Thanksgiving. And for all you more southerly gents - have a safe and happy Columbus Day.

Brad Clayton Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Oh, I am enjoying it. Columbus Day brings a ton of "flatlanders" to Vermont. It's also "leaf peeping" season here. My driving experience yesterday, was like riding around in New York City. It's all good though, lots of money is spent at local business. There ain't too many people in Vermont so I ususally don't pass to many cars on my commute. With that said, you can't drive very fast around here, it's too easy to be spotted. (I miss driving really fast, the South is like the wild west when it comes to traffic violations) so when everyone comes up and floods the roads, they bring their out of state driving attitudes and I can let them flush out the cops and at the sametime pick up some speed . Happy Thanksgiving! Seems weird to say that, we're getting ready for Halloween! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Warman Posted October 10, 2010 Author Share Posted October 10, 2010 I was looking at a list of celebratory dates to see when you guys "do" Thanksgiving this year. I thought it interesting that "Cinco de Mayo" (I often wonder if some people don't consider this a celebration of mayonnaise) is both included as well as possibly thought of as happening on a day different than May 5th. Anyway.... I see your Thanksgiving is on November 25 this year.... and that puts it a little too close to the next turkey dinner at Xmas. Of course there is always ham..
